I am not DIR (you'd only have to see me flapping around in the water for 10 secs to realise that!), however if this DIR bashing continues, it really would not suprise me if a "DIR World" sprang up, and those who currently consider themselves DIR left these boards. In fact I'm amazed it hasn't already happened. If it does, YD would certainly be a poorer place for it.

LOL! Glad to see you took my advice. Not DIR at the moment, but can appreciate the merits of certain aspects. Looking forward to being educated!!

Welcome Darren.

Yes I remember the post - and the thread well - and it was a (small) one of the motivating factors for getting this off the ground.

We (well I) haven't left YD though - just found a bit of space to chat things through with like minded or interested divers - from all around the world.

So while the name DIR World was taken, it's a nice analogy - there is room for many diverse groups on the internet - welcome to this little bit
